Uptempo 70's Soul Podcast! Yes, By Me

[Pete S]

These records were all spun on the Northern Soul scene, mainly between 1975 and 77, and the interesting thing is that back then, I didn't separate these from the 60's tunes, it was all Northern Soul. Somewhere along the way, lines became drawn and suddenly we had Modern Soul and much later, Crossover, but these uptempo 70's dancers will always have strong connections to some great days on the Northern Soul scene. I was never a Blackpool Mecca attendee but every one of these tracks was played at Wigan and most at Cleethorpes and probably places like The Ritz too. Anyway, great memories and to my surprise, one of the most enjoyable podcasts I've ever done!
